CD Reviews

Contralto heaven
Dr. Peter J. Glidden | Gli Angeli, California | 05/14/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Robert King's recordings of Vivaldi's Sacred Music is beyond belief -- it has been too long since we've had a reinterpretation of this tremendous vocal output (since Vittorio Negri's 1970's releases). The soloists are flawless. Susan Gritton is truly an artist and everything she touches turns to gold. However, the true gem of this disk is track 8, In memoriam aeternam. Scored for three (female) altos, the lowest part actually written in the tenor range, this trio will curl your toes. The deep, sensual beauty of these women's voice, Nathalie Stutzman, Alexandra Gibson, and (tenor!) Hillary Summers, is sheer opulence."
